About this product

Product Information

This edition of lvar N ez Cabeza de Vaca's Relaci n offers readers Rolena Adorno and Patrick Charles Pautz's celebrated translation of Cabeza de Vaca's account of the 1527 P nfilo de Narv ez expedition to North America. The dramatic narrative tells the story of some of the first Europeans and the first-known African to encounter the North American wilderness and its Native inhabitants. It is a fascinating tale of survival against the highest odds, and it highlights Native Americans and their interactions with the newcomers in a manner seldom seen in writings of the period. In this English-language edition, reproduced from their award-winning three-volume set, Adorno and Pautz supplement the engrossing account with a general introduction that orients the reader to Cabeza de Vaca's world. They also provide explanatory notes, which resolve many of the narrative's most perplexing questions. This highly readable translation fires the imagination and illuminates the enduring appeal of Cabeza de Vaca's experience for a modern audience.

  • Cool early Explorer first hand account.

    It is a neat fist hand account of real Texas history. Quite a nice read and fun to try to read into the text what may have been his real thoughts.

  • The Narrative of Cabeza de Vaca

    Great book with some of the best notations of any I've seen. Very compelling narrative that puts you in the shoes of a 16th century Spanish explorer in the virtually unknown North American continent lying north of Tampico. Very fun and easy read at under 200 pages. The introduction is very long but is key to fleshing out the sometimes contradictory text.
